Artist Statement
My artwork is an exploration of joy translated through the unpredictable nature of abstract fluid mediums. Rather than working from rigid, preconceived ideas, I choose a vibrant, intuitive palette and let the natural movement of the liquid paint guide the composition.
The physical act of creation is a dialogue between intention and spontaneity. I tilt the canvas or blow the paint around, and watch as high-contrast colors layer, push, and blend into one another. This technique creates intricate cells and flowing gradients that mimic the energetic rhythms of nature.
I choose to focus on bold, uplifting colors because I believe art should be a source of energy and light. Ultimately, my work invites viewers to step away from daily complexities and simply immerse themselves in a celebratory, uninhibited display of color and emotion.
More About Cathy Wagner
While I've been painting with acrylics for over 15 years, abstract fluid art has been like a whole new medium for me. I can't get enough of it and have painted over 200 pieces of various size in the year and a half since I discovered it.
I would be honored to have one of my pieces hanging in your home or office. If you see something you like, please contact me.
